Bitter Scar

part 24

This was the last day working for Diego. I only had few minutes to send him my proposal before he combines every idea then send it to the main company in need. I had really worked hard for him.

I never wanted anything to be a mess. I wished for his success. I wanted the best for him. But why? After everything he did to me i still care about him.

I just don't understand myself anymore. Instead of being mad at him, i did everything with him. Instead of wishing him bad luck, i cared for him. I ensured he got all that he wanted. I controlled all workers to ensure that nothing was a mess.

I still cared about him. I still wanted him. I was still craving for his touch. My body wanted to be close to him. I missed his hugs.

Should i tell him? But how will i even approach him and the whole time i have been harsh on him. He has really tried a lot to have my attention but i kept on avoiding him.

Am i even doing the right thing? Maybe i should give him a chance if that's what he wants.

Maybe i should call him over. He gave me his number when he wanted to share more ideas with me. Since i was supposed to give the final results.

I went for my phone which was on my bed and dialed his number.

"Hello,"

"Have you finished your work?"

"Not really. I just wanted to talk with you,"

"Am busy for now but i promise to make it up to you,"

And with that, i ended the call.

So he will be coming.  Do i have the courage to talk with him? What will i tell him first? That i still have feelings for him? That am still crazy for him? That i want him?

What if he doesn't come? He said he was busy. Maybe i should just ask him not come.

I dialed his number again but this time he didn't pick it up. I try for the third time but still he didn't pick it up. Maybe he was very busy. I should just wait for him.

I went to Asha's room and found her still sleeping. She has been having a high fever of late. But i had given her some syrup hoping she would feel better.

"Asha," i called her trying to wake her up. She didn't respond. So i just went back to the kitchen to prepare soup for her. She always loves soup.

I went back to her room with the soup in a bowl. I held her in my hands and tried making her take the soup. She was still sleepy but she drunk it. Her body temperature was getting better.

"Mummy will i get well?"

"Yes love. You already feeling better. Just finish your soup and sleep. Once you wake up you will be fine,"

Once she finished her soup, i helped her back to sleep. I then kissed her forehead and went back to my room.

While going through my laptop, i saw Diego's message. He had sent an email address and asked me to send the final work to it.

I typed the email down and sent the work to it. I received a confirmation message that the work sent was clear and accepted.

It was getting late and Diego had not yet come. Maybe he won't come. He is still the same. I wish i didn't even call him.

He never stand by his word.
